REGISTRATION.

Births.—Persons should cause their children to be registered within forty-two days after birth, by giving personal notice to the registrar of their district, without any fee whatever. Registration may be effected after the expiration of the forty-two days, and within six months, on payment of a fee of 7s. 6d.; but after six months no birth can be registered.

Deaths.—Intimation should be given of deaths in the same manner as births. This is of importance to be done early, as the undertaker must have a certificate to give to the minister who reads the funeral services, without which he may refuse to bury the body.

As the cause of death is to be entered, sound discretion should be used in ascertaining the real nature of the deceased’s death, for which important purpose even facility should be given.
